White chocolate strawberry cheesecake

Here it is! Everything all together - base, cream filling, raw choc drizzle and fresh strawberries.

We enjoyed the cheesecake with a simple banana and coconut cream sorbet (2 frozen bananas, 1/4 can of organic coconut cream and tiny bit of agave). It was really delicious, a great balance of texture, flavour and freshness.

Noah wrote up a list of the key ingredients, see below.

Strawberry cashew cream

Another of my little brothers, Llewy joined our cheesecake making team, and with him brought a high level of genius and attention to detail. Llewy made the cashew, cacao butter and strawberry cream filling. It was his idea to add the strawberries and when we tasted it we all decided that it didnt need chocolate as it was already super delicious. When Llewy was putting the cream on top of the base, he shook the pan vigorously, and initially I was like hey slow down and chill out dude until I realised that his method created an ultra smooth and even layer of cream. 

Cream filling

--
1 and 1/2 cups of organic cashews soaked for 2 hours
5 or so strawberries
a few tablespoons of dark agave syrup
approx 4 tbs of melted raw organic cold pressed cacao butter
tiny bit of pink salt
blended together until beautifully smooth
spread on top of base (and put into freezer)

Inspiration

Gathering inspirations from all over the place to make my mum's birthday cake. Here are a few of the most delicious sounding recipes that I found on the net

Blackforest Chocolate Cheesecake
Raw Orange Chocolate "Cheesecake"
Concorde Grape Cheesecake with Fig and Grape Puree
Raw Chocolate Avocado Pie

Ive decided to go down the path of cashew nut cream filling using cacao butter. Noah and I went to the health food shop and bought some organic cashews and chatted to the lovely man working there about eating raw and the high food miles of ridiculous superfoods, he gave both of us a taste of his homemade flax crackers (which Noah loved) and some more inspiration for our cheesecake adventure.

When we got home from the school pick up/ organic shop mission I showed Noah some of the recipes I had shortlisted, he was totally pumped to get right into it and start making a really delicious wonder cake for our mumma. He put his apron on and we went for it.
Noah requested that we make the Purple cheesecake for his birthday in February (and got me to write it in my diary so I dont forget).
